How to compile a java program that uses a loaded library inside another compiled class file?

Hello,

I've been able to compile a java file that loads a library from a DLL file written in C++.
Yet I still can't compile another java file which makes use of that compiled java class file.
Error Message: cannot find symbol: HelloNative.greeting();
My point is to be able to use that loaded library manually and completely.
Can anyone point out how?

Can you post a simple, short example that demonstrates what you're trying to do? Through imports or by proximity (on the CLASSPATH or in the same project/folder), what you propose should be very simple, so it's difficult to say why you're having problems without an example.
